 Cattanooga
Cats - Feline hillbilly rock and roll band featured on the
Saturday Hanna Barbera cartoon THE CATTANOOGA CATS/ABC/1969-71.
The band members consisted of Kitty Jo (Julie Bennett), the lead
singer and dancer; Groove, the drummer (Casey Kasem); Country,
the guitarist (Bill Callaway); and Scoots, the bass fiddle
player (Jim Begg). The other member of the group was a large
grey shaggy dog named Teenie Tim. To get to their gigs, the
Cattanooga Cats drove in a large yellow touring bus. The group
performed musical fillers that connected other segments of the
show. The series theme song was written by television composer
Hoyt Curtin (1922-2000) who also composed the lyrics for "The
Flintstones" and "The Jetsons."
